There was a flap a while ago when actress Brooke Shields shared that she experienced postpartum depression. You may remember the situation – Tom Cruise decided to take on the psychiatric world and proclaim that Ms Shields shouldn’t have taken antidepressants and that he really knew more about psychiatry than others did.
Anyway, luckily for Ms Shields, she managed well without Tom Cruise’s help. Now, actress Amanda Peet reveals that she, too, suffered from this. Following another popular topic these days, Ms Peet has also become active in the vaccine movement, countering the effect that Jenny McCarthy may be having with her anti-vaccine push.
